Happy Birthday!


Happy Birthday to my wonderful Mother! This blog wouldn't be able to contain all the incredible things I could say about her, so I'll just keep it simple...



WE LOVE YOU MOM!!!!!

Busy times!


We have been very busy already this week!! I have started working on the school's yearbook and we began last night to set up for our HUMONGOUS Jr. Church yard sale. It is unbelievable the amount of stuff that people have brought in! There's more coming, too!!! If you're in the area, you definitely need to come by and shop!
Looks like that's about all we'll get accomplished this week...school work & sale. Also, Nancy, Gary, Nathan, & Trish are all coming this weekend. Good thing I did some cleaning last week...can't tell though...SIGH!

Extra, Extra, Read All About It

I would love to tell my faithful blog-readers (the whole 2 of ya) that I have some wonderful, earth-shattering news, but alas, I have failed you! Graduation was last Friday, thus my career as a "teacher" has officially ended...for now. I'm looking forward to my next career...the overpaid, hard to find, sought & fought after position of being a "mommy." :0) Guess my teaching career is far from being over!

We're on vacation this week, but not doing anything overly exciting. Mom and Rachel came down Sunday evening and we went to Brown County and goofed off around here. Tomorrow, Wesley takes a job entrance test and then we're headed to mom's for who knows what kind of fun little jobs for Wesley. :) (I think I overheard painting involved...)

Next week, our Jr. Church is having a yard sale, so I need to finish up the sorting here. I'm helping set up all week and Wes's family is all coming for that. Hope they don't mind making their way through a path in the house...it's a DISASTER.

This summer is going to prove very interesting, I'm afraid. If you hear screams or loud rumblings, it's just one super, over-sized pregnant woman getting overheated and stressing about everything! Keep praying for us...especially Wesley! (He's the one getting to deal with the above description).

Jr/Sr Banquet

Last Thursday we had our Jr/Sr Banquet...Doesn't Wesley make a handsome, distinguished looking teacher...hands all folded...standing straight and tall...just about looking like one of the high schoolers himself (he's been accused of that several times on field trips!)I'm certainly never accused of that! :) Thankfully, I've never been called his mother like my mom was with dad...something about us and younger looking men... :)

It has been busy, busy, busy here. Last night was our Award's Night. The high school did a skit this year that I had told Wesley about...The Doctor's Office...noone here had heard of it. Anyways, it's really funny, but I was a little nervous that our kids wouldn't pull it off...if you'd seen practice you would totally understand. But, they did a really good job and the entire audience was howling. Bro. Thompson and Marvin were wiping their eyes with hankies! One of the mom's came up afterwards and told me that Ethan, one of my Kindergartners was sitting by Bro. Thompson. She said he was already laughing super hard, but then Ethan looked at him and said really loud, "This is sooooo funny!" I guess he just about lost it then!

Our picnic was cancelled today because of the rain. So, I really need to go grocery shopping and clean house! If you've ever moved, you'll understand that cleaning house is pretty much a joke when there are things piled everywhere that don't belong! I couldn't resist posting this picture of Nancy and Wesley getting boxes. We don't usually go dumpster diving...

Help

Does anyone know why it won't give me the normal toolbar for posting a new post? It's coming up with a spot with URL......MIME Type.......What in the world is that? It won't let me add anything to the layout either. I wanted to add some pictures, but there's no option for it.

Changes

I now know why I didn't change my background for a long time....it takes too long to put everything back in.

We only had a half day today in order to get ready for award's night tomorrow. It's a beautiful day here! Things are winding down in the school year. Graduation is Friday and it'll be all over. Then we'll really start experiencing changes...
